Eurgh. The very fact it's in The Soaraway Sun makes me disbelieve the whole phenomenon! Also they said that one swing moved while the other two stayed still - completely disproved by other video evidence. Lazy, lazy journalists.

I like this:

Well if you let children watch films rated 18 (R to you) of course they are going to come up with ridiculous suggestions. As a responsible adult you should be discouraging this.

Idiots.

Why don't they ride the swings, and get a free push?

Better yet, can't they generate electricity from it?

A small, flightless aquatic bird, smaller than a penguin, but larger than a puffin.

Boffin - Colloquial term for sexual intercourse.
Yeah, I was boffin her, when her old man pulled in the driveway.

What, was he watching?


I'm putting this in weird news, but it could also go as a WTF?

Jail terms for Israeli neo-Nazis

If you don't like Jewish people, why the hell did you move to Israel???

Meanwhile, this Japanese freak has decided to spend his entire Mexican vacation in the airport, for no apparent reason.

NEW YORK - An entrepreneur has decided to have fun with the U.S. presidential campaign by marketing condoms featuring images of the candidates, Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain.

Benjamin Sherman, who created the company Practice Safe Policy, says the Obama condom carries the slogan "Use With Good Judgment."

The McCain version says "Old But Not Expired" - a reference to the candidate's relatively old age of 71.

According to the Web site, McCain condoms are battle-tested, strong and durable, for those occasions when "you just need to switch your position"!

While the company can't guarantee the condoms are 100 percent effective, it says it's certain that without wearing one, there's likely to be an Obama-Mama in your future.
